Mike Pence will release the first episode of his new podcast, “American Freedom,” on Friday, the latest volley in the former vice president’s effort to recapture conservative audiences ahead of a potential presidential run in 2024

For Former Vice President Mike Pence, the podcast is part of a gradual re-emergence into Republican Party politics. | Sean Rayford/Getty Images.is devoted to the 20th anniversary of 9/11, Pence tells listeners he plans in future episodes to discuss the “failed leadership of the Biden administration, a crisis on our Southern border, a crime wave in our cities,” efforts to “preserve our freedom” amid the coronavirus pandemic and “the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

In its timing and subject matter, the podcast episode released today will draw an implicit contrast with Trump. While Trump was scheduled to spend Saturday’s 20th anniversary of 9/11 providing, Pence on the podcast shares memories of 9/11 and speaks with one woman whose father died in the terrorist attacks and another whose father died in the war in Iraq, as well as with students who have organized commemorations of the attacks.

Lol .

I ran out Ambien, so I'm definitely looking forward to it.

Ooooo.... exciting! I need more edge of a seat to sit on!!! Will he spout conservative platitudes? Protect the 2nd amendment? Make luke warm gelatinous comments about morals and values after his soul died on the alter of Trump? The best bit will be WWMD. ('What Would Mother Do.')

😴

His wife might tune in.

That fly must have sucked some of his brain out

That's freedom for some, servitude for most of us. The Republicans are talking about freedom to exploit the working class. The freedom to profit off of War and misery. The freedom to keep the majority of Americans in a state of economic insecurity. Free to be unaccountable.

Now that’s an oxymoron if there ever was one hiding in plain sight.

You mean the statue talks …. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

thanks, will tune in. It is extraordinarily laughable that Mike_Pence thinks he has ANY chance of being elected to anything. His craven four years licking the boots of djt will forever stain his brand!

🤣🤣🤡

Remind me not to watch😇

SNL should do a skit on Pence's podcast.

Who?

I’ll pass.

'Many people are saying, so you know it is true' that the AMA recommends this podcast for those with a sleep disorder. Pence has spent a lifetime saying nothing and perfected in office with 'see no evil, say no evil, hear no evil' while standing next to it.

Counter-programming the Dos Equis guy by giving a podcast to the Least Interesting Man in the World. Odd choice.

Works better then beach sounds to put you to sleep 💤

Please.

Liberals don’t like him. Trumpers don’t like him for doing his job. What’s left?

He’s history!

Can’t think of a worse candidate for POTUS except his former boss.

🥱

🖕him

Who?

Barf!

Who? January 6th Committee subpoena ought to get him back to DC soon.
